Walking the yellow brick road..

....Or in this case, jalan merah saga. There were 4 dotties and all of them wore red shoes. I spied a pair in patent red, lace red, plastic red and fabric? Or was it red leather? :D the ladies strutted in black and when two paired to wear pants, the other two came in skirts! *syncronicity!* ;) The walk up or long trek for 1 dotty and down was to create; first hunger then last to digest all the yummylicious food. Cats galore in oranges! Black! All shapes and sizes with swallowed-frog-tails *jempot-jempot* and not short of shy ones, horny ones *hehe* or just too-cute-i-wanna-catnap-it-home-fat-one slipped through the quirky inspired dotty's fingers because the fat cat was locked up. Sentences hung in mid air to bursts of laughter and fingers pointing afar *tonothing* turned out to be profoundly pointing into seeing the future! *phew*

Dim lights from dancing candles, lit the each softly accentuated faces in different shades of ideals and hopes. At times, the face from an angle shied away from the torrent of trivia and prying questions but the intensity of honesty, made each dotty reveal herself as who she is. And that was the true ‘Kodak moment’ *muahahah* or Nikon or Canon lar! The classics laced the night as incidents where they managed to burn happy trainee hazel from the Philippines, whom slat-dotty and quirky-dotty agree was CUTE. Sinus-dotty broke out of her shell and transformed herself into sexy-dotty soon after being drilled dry on world history and politics. And original-dotty was the epitome of coolness but turned into a very, very giggly dotty especially after slat-dotty tried to order “lab rack” to devour because she felt like meat.

As they huddled together trying to stretch the time to just another one more drink, all of them polished pearls safely tucked in the very meaty oyster called the rest of the world, they each in their own way paid silent tribute and toasted the night with another promise to meet again. Later, after being gently reminded that the restaurant was about to close, they skipped all the way back clicking their shoes when cool-dotty went all flighty upon the chanced find of a curio shop! Filled with wanderlust she went missing when asked to pose for a picture :P the dotty spirits contentedly drunk with the nights events made way their way home. And not a single soul was not in daffodil bloom on that dewy, romantic no constellations in sight night.

How can you get very far,
If you don’t know Who You Are?
How can you do what you ought,
If you don’t know What You’ve Got?
And if you don’t know Which To Do
Of all the things in front of you,
Then what you’ll have when you are through
Is just a mess without a clue
If you know What and Which and Who.

Red is good. All good.
